The price for natural gas in Europe has risen further, as Russia continues to restrict the export of the fuel and the hot weather requires a lot of energy for cooling. A megawatt hour of gas cost 241 euros at the close of trading on the leading stock exchange in Amsterdam. The price is therefore 7 percent higher than the day before and is the highest closing price ever. The current price is 11 times higher than what is normal for the time of year.
